Stories From PEP

This is the result of the PEP ASER Test conducted recently in the month of May, and compared with the result of government ASER test. The 32 PEP schools that include in the ASER result are those that have SMILE (E-learning) currently running. These inforgraphics show what subjects the students have made progress in, between PEP and Government schools.

​Steps to understand the results:- The PEP Data shows the PEP school results of each subject that were test in schools having E-learning.- The ASER Data are the government school results that were taken in government schools without E-learning.-The colors below show the different subjects that were tested. - Numbers starting from the left is the average.- One to Five are the classes of PEP and Government schools.

It was not the primary purpose of this assessment to compare PEP with Government schools, but to show the transparency of how the students of PEP schools are making progress in their studies and where they are working on their improvements. Moreover, this assessment is a map to measure the teachers capacity as well as the students learning ability in all subjects (including supplementary curriculum).

With the ASER results at hand, we are now heading toward the 3rd phase of SMILE (E-learning)

The 3rd phase of SMILE means more students will be provided the opportunity to access Android tablet through SMILE plug. PEP has been working in coordination with Concentric Development and was majorly supported by David Weekly Foundation to provide PEP students the access to android tablets and integrating their use in PEP curriculum. The initiative derived a huge impact through remarkably increasing the learning abilities of students that has been shown in the graphs above.

How will the 3rd phase take place:The 3rd phase will include 4 more schools to the existing 32 PEP schools where students will have the opportunity to use Android tablet for the first time.

What Does the E-learning curriculum involve? The E-learning curriculum includes Sindhi apps from class beginners to 2 class, English story books, to improve reading skills, Sindhi web contents, and Khan Academy for improving math skills.
